Blue Abyss check up dive report
Hi guys
 we recently did some dives at the   famous Blue Abyss in Pet Cemetery, Sac Actun System.
Here is a short  report on the profile we followed
Reach the Blue Abyss 32%, 40  minutes swimming following the X line, 3 jumps involved.
Blue Abyss  deco set up: 02 alu40 clipped on the line at 20 ft, travel with alu 80  with Nitrox 50%, not a good idea to clip them on the line because at 70  ft, they could break the line.
Bottom mix on a double 80, Trimix  18/45
Planned time at 200 ft. max 15 minutes (for a maximum of 30  minutes deco, plus deep stop)
Actual time at depth 8 minutes, 3  minutes descent from 20 ft to 200 ft.
Ascent profile: 200ft. to 150  ft. 2 minutes
75% deep stop at 150, then every 10 ft until we reached  the 50% deep stop and then the first gas switch at 70 ft. with Nitrox  50% to open the 02 window
Break on back gas before the second gas  switch on 02
Second gas switch at 20 ft. with 02
Deco total 16  minutes, 8  minutes with Nitrox 50% in the first part of deco divided by  the number of stop every 10 ft. trying to shape it as  S- curve, 8  minutes with 02, all at 20ft.
Going back we had left Nitrox 50% so  that is the gas we used on our way out, average depth 30 ft.
We used  UTD  Ratio Deco 1:2
Total run time of the dive 2 hour 45 minutes
We  came out clean as a whistle, in fact Ela , 3 hours after the dive, went  for a kick boxing 2 hour session no problem.
Love Ratio deco  profile, love to not be tired after the dive and love the fact that I  could do exercise and continue my normal life even after a deep dive.
Have  fun and safe dives!!!
